Red Serpent is your Conscious Self
- who you are and who you are becoming.

"I am the flint and tinder of the sacred fire,"
reads the meditation for Red Serpent. In the Great Mystery, flint and
tinder represent the instinctive combustion that initiates movement
in the physical body toward union with Spirit. When flint and tinder
are brought together, the spark of divinity awakens and ignites the
fire of your essence. Red Serpent invites the purifying spark of the
sacred fire, the kundalini, to align and integrate your body, mind and
spirit. Red Serpent can help you uncover apparent blockages in specific
chakras to clear an align them. If you are working on a process of purification,
invite Red Serpent to assist you.
Red Serpent's symbol is the serpent, representing healing and wholeness.

This Mayan medicine can remove toxins,
rejuvenate and transform dis-ease. Red Serpent is also known by
the Maya as the kultanlilni, or kundalini, the energy that moves up
from the base of the spine and out through the crown chakra. There are
two aspects of this force, the ida and the pingala, representing its
male and female polarities. One of the ancient secrets of Red Serpent
is the activation of higher states of consciousness through balancing
these two polarities so that they dance within us as one. Another metaphor
for this serpent energy comes from the Mayan words luk umen tun ben
can, or "those absorbed by the serpent of the sacred knowledge."
When the seven chakras are fully activated, one experiences an enlightened
state.

Red Serpent represents the basic structural apparatus of your motivations,
instincts, desires, and your innate movement toward wholeness. Red Serpent
asks you to shed the skin of your past and step into the fires of alchemical
transmutation. In this, rebirth is revealed. This desire is an innate
response encoded in the depths of your being.

With the energy of Red Serpent, you learn to use the innate intelligence
of the body. In this culture you may have become separated from this
wisdom. It works like this: when you suppress and ignore your issues,
your body receives and retains the unconscious metaphors of that which
is ignored. This may be expressed through physical symptoms that bring
your unconscious issues to conscious awareness. When this happens, work
toward a more conscious relatonship with your body - and work with the
physical metaphors in order to heal yourself on all
levels.

The body has a specific kind of consciousness through which messages
are clearly delivered. In fact, the body itself is a living metaphor
that mirrors your mind, emotions and spirit. However, the body also
remembers all it has experienced, and consequently holds the consciousness
of the past within it, including past wounds and traumas. In healing
these, remember the innocence of your body. Treat it with love and respect.
Open yourself to be aware of its messages and metaphors rather than
storing them. Be willing to look at the positive intent beneath any
symptoms or physical process your body is using to communicate. Explore
whatever it may be asking you to see.

In this alignment process, you can use images or energies that come
to you in meditation or dreams. Journey through your body to catalyze
and explore any sensations, colors, shapes, or images. In these times
we have a profound opportunity to transcend both our physical and our
spiritual genetics. The body's integration provides an unparalleled
opportunity for personal evolution. Learn to expand and utilize your
senses to access your body's wisdom and vitality. Don't 'think' about
it; simply allow your body to sense intuitively the solutions
necessary for change and growth.

Red Serpent also represents the connection between powerful physical/ecstatic
experiences and the light of higher consciousness. This is an initiation
of awakening through the body and senses, rather than in negation
of them. As Jose Arguelles says in The Mayan Factor, "Like the
Maya, we shall understand that the path to the stars is through
the senses." Within the body are held the keys to fully awakening
our consciousness. This deeper understanding is expressed in tantric
practices, where spirituality and sexuality are integrated and honoured
as a means to enlightenment. Red Serpent represents the integration
of mind, body and spirit.

Use the body as a tool for transformation. Learn how to
use passion and the senses as a means of access and alignment to higher
consciousness. Follow your gut-level intuitions and instincts to make
choices in the moment.

Be willing to look at issues you have concerning intimacy
and sexuality. Make sure that you are not separated from the dance of
passion that is in union with your divine nature. Sense your deeper
desire for union and intimacy. Red Serpent calls on you to awaken your
vitality, body wisdom, and passion for life.

Red Serpent is associated with the sacred tools of the drum and the
rattle. Drums and rattles can break down old patterns or bring energy
into alignment.

Red Earth is your Higher Self &
Guide.

Red Earth is the access point to your natural alignment with Earth force.
It is the unis mundi, the point of perfect centeredness in
the eternal present from which all alignment and magic manifest. Your
center, the Earth center, is the secret of gravity's magnetizing force.
Red Earth is the channel of harmonic synchronization that is aligned
with the galactic heart. From the center point within eslf, you align
with this galactic center and connect through your own crystalline structure
to the larger crystal grid network. To keep this channel of synchronization
open, connect to the elemental energies of earth, air, fire and water,
and the seven directional guardians.

Cosmic consciousness is not just 'out there'; it is also resonating
within you. Be sacramentally rooted where you are. You are made of the
Earth! Look through the 'eyes' in your feet. Your body is the present
focus of your consciousness - through it all gifts are received. Remember,
too, that your environment is alive and reacts to your awareness of
it; therefore, the way you perceive the Earth and your physical form
affects the information you receive.

Red Earth is the Earth keeper, the keeper of the garden, the shaman/healer
who, through reverence for all life, heals and sanctifies the Earth.
Earth keepers preserve the harmonic relationship with nature by connecting
to the wisdom held in matter. In Latin, mater means "mother".
As you bring light into yourself, you bring light into matter. You and
the Earth both contain the holographic seed of the new consciousness
emerging.

Center yourself in the present moment! This is where you can most beneficially
observe the synchronicities and revelations about your personal pattern
and larger purpose. From here your mind can learn to be keenly observant,
allowing the larger pattern to take shape as naturally as the small
brushstrokes that eventually complete a beautiful painting.

Sit in simple relationship to the Earth, like a poet enraptured
in a forest. Be rooted where you are now. Out of synergistic centeredness,
you will receive your greatest desires and open to the full flowering
of the mystic power of the universe. This synchronization can be seen
as the alignment of your personal myth with the greater myth of our
times. Myth is the framework or "story" in which the truth
of the cosmos is revealed in symbolic form. Utilize it to catalyze your
unfolding alignment.

By accepting your physical form and your growth process in this world,
you access the hub of centeredness out of which all the truth and magic
of the universe unfold.

Take off your shoes. Touch the one Earth. Find a place
to dance with the sacred hoop of life. Contribute your vision as an
awakened member of the global rainbow family!

Yellow Warrior is your Subconscious Self and Hidden Helper.

Yellow Warrior, the galactic guide, is a mystic ferryman
on the return path to the stars; allow Yellow Warrior's staff to ferry
you to the spiraling vortex of cosmic consciousness. Yellow Warrior
is the grace of the descent of the dove. Embody the mystic gift of trust
in direct guidance. Through trust, you journey to the place of 'no time'
and limitless light. There you will undergo the transformations to embody
solar heart and mind.

Yellow Warrior is a conduit for cosmic communication, offering access
to the universal web of consciousness. This is the web of the Mayan
mystic spider that weaves intergalactic threads, the conduit of interconnected
consciousness. Yellow Warrior is the spider in the web, the grid connection
for divine communication. Receive these ripples of knowing from Yellow
Warrior's web through the central axis in your spine, your staff. Accept
this gift of knowing in grace, as you would receive the morning light
by turning your face to the Sun. Grace is an unexpected touch, a blessing
given in love, a natural gift from the universe. Use the power of love
like an electrical current to serve the light. Open fully to feel and
receive it!

The number for Yellow Warrior is sixteen, the number of
unity with the cosmic foundation of resonant evolution. As you embody
the ferryman's staff, you become anchored in your connection to cosmic
consciousness. Holding within you the foundational steps of the trinity,
you carry the "Christed one" into the world. As a living mystic,
you are the conduit of the spiraling galaxies that creates a union with
cosmic consciousness. Sixteen may also be seen as the beginning of another
octave - a higher octave characterized by organic balance and the new
Earth under your feet.

Trust in guidance is an essential attitude in accessing
the position of the central pillar. Trust in Spirit to provide all you
need, and trust that what is given will serve your highest evolution.
Trust in the wisdom of the "Mind of Light curriculum." Trust
in your inner voice, your feelings, your moment-by-moment guidance.
This is Spirit's clear confirmation. Trust as an open vehicle for Spirit,
your mystical intelligence, your divine guidance. Embody your ability
to commune with cosmic intelligence.

Direct guidance, communication, and embodiment are the
key concepts contained in the staff. It is a symbol of learning to stand
in your full power and authority - learning to 'tune in' to galactic
intelligence so that transmissions are received effortlessly. This resonance
is created through embodying light. The ferryman is offering you his
staff. Plant it within yourself so that it becomes a blossoming tree
of consciousness.

Yellow Warrior's colours are indigo and gold, combining the limitlessness
of the night sky with the freedom of the daytime Sun. If you desire
to access grace and trust, focus on these colours.

Blue Eagle represents your Challenge
and Gift. With maturity and awareness this challenge will turn into
a Focus. This is what you desire to learn in this lifetime.

The energy of Blue Eagle asks you to believe in yourself
and believe in your dreams and visions, no matter how they may be perceived
by others. You are the eagle's vision.

One shadow of Blue Eagle is a loss of hope, excitement,
or joy in your life. This can stem from a reaction to mass consciousness
or from the precipitous state of the world. In your deep desire to effect
change, you may feel overwhelmed in a vast ocean of consciousness that
seems hopelessly enmeshed in issues of separation, limitation, and judgement.
If so, remember that elements of this enormous field are often attracted
to your personal dreamfield for healing. These duality constructs are
deeply rooted on the planet. Don't be discouraged. The global mind is
in the process of a profound transformation. As you heal these issues
within yourself, you offer gifts of healing to the larger reality. Do
not underestimate the power of your personal transformation and its
effect on planetary mind: "Gaia, as you awaken, I
heal myself. As I awaken, you are healed."

This wondrous pool of planetary consciousness is full
of archetypal mysteries, hopes, dreams, and fears. Some beings may feel
that their personal world is 'falling apart' as their lives expand into
the larger dream. Sometimes this feeling manifests as hopelessness,
which may even lead to a desire to leave the Earth. Remember, you are
in human form for a divine reason! You have chosen this form in order
to participate in the great miracle! Walk with ease in commitment to
your destiny. Allow yourself to explore and play compassionately as
a planetary server. You are the emissary of the great change.

In the shadow of Blue Eagle, you may also be so obsessed
by finding your "purpose" that you miss seeing how simple
it can be. Your purpose can be as simple as expressing love and light
- and that is enough! Take heart. There are great gifts being offered
for your participation in healing the global mind.

Another shadow of Blue Eagle is when your purpose as a
planetary server becomes a messianic obsession, creating a 'rescuer
complex'. This may also be seen in self-sacrificing behaviour, an inability
to say no, or an attachment to rescuing others. In this shadow, your
desire to serve needs to be tempered with self-nourishment and sustaining
rest. If you neglect your personal needs and desires and do not allow
time for joy and rest, you may feel depleted and lacking. Hold yourself
in the same compassion as you hold the world. Strive to keep your personal
needs in balance with planetary service. Fill your personal cup. Take
loving care of yourself, and your cup will naturally overflow to empower
your work with others.

Believe in yourself! Remember the purpose and commitment
you have in the larger pattern.

White Wizard is the Magician, whose powers are activated
by wisdom that emanates from the heart. Such wisdom is not the intellectual
understanding known in Western culture; it is the wisdom that comes
from an alignment of mind and heart. An open, trusting heart is a refined
tool of perception. Allowing yourself to 'not know' opens the door of
the mind to a deeper understanding of the universe. White Wizard asks
you to fully utilize this aligned mind to participate in magic.

White Wizard invites you to step into self-empowerment. Empowerment
comes from self-acceptance, integrity, and commitment to your evolution.
Self-empowerment is not to be found outside oneself. Anything outside
that brings you empowerment also has a divine foundation within you.
If you feel a need for the approval of others, look to self-empowerment.
When you feel effectively engaged, doing what gives you joy, your energy
naturally expands to inlcude more of who you are, and magic flows synchronistically
into your life. Claim your alignment with the highest wisdom. Call forth
divine action in all that you do!

Align your own will with divine will and your Essence
Self. Be transparent, innocently allowing magic to come through you
rather than needing to create it. Open to heart-knowing and limitless
possibilties.

White Wizard is a tool of the light, a
conduit for the work of Spirit. A wise magician is spontaneous and transparent,
allowing magic to come in rather than trying to control it or make it
happen. A magician dances the dance of love through offering gifts of
freedom to others. This is real magic. Freed from the need to use power
to manipulate or control, a magician uses wisdom to manifest liberation
and love.

The harmonic wisdom of White Wizard is
melody, the progression of signle tones within a composition.
White Wizard symbolizes the sacred journey of your individual life.
As a harmonic magician, you are a novel yet universal container for
the expression of the Divine. While you play the melody of your journey's
spirit song, the Creator provides the harmony.

Melody is to music what story line is to
story. Utilize the elements you have chosen for exploration in your
life - your gifts, talents, abilities, motivations, circumstances, and
the other characters in your play. Orchestrate the most interesting
and growth-engendering story line from this combination of possibilities.
Understand that you are the player and the played in the melody in your
life.

Twelve is the ray of Complex Stability, the foundation of self
and the foundation of essence in union with the mystical truth of polarity.
All things are interwoven in the dance of yin and yang. All parts make
up a greater whole. Draw on the wisdom, strength, and stability you
derive as a member of the greater coucil. No matter what your experience,
there is a complex stability in the larger pattern that invites you
to feel stable as you expand and evolve. Living in a world of polarities,
yet knowing that all parts are one in the unified whole, creates the
underlying framework of connectedness. The hologram of polarity is simply
the structure, the loom upon which worlds and realities are woven.

Stability is a matter of perception. Find where you can openly flow
and expand in the midst of seeming complexity. Utilize the relationships
created by polarity to explore and expand any self-limiting construct.
Open your perceptions. Through you, the mysterious balance of the cosmos
is fulfilled.
